Odds are, if it's too good to be true, it probably is. That holds true for supposed lenders and supposed principals. You will spin your wheels and waste time.<br />
<br />
The commercial lending field has completely changed and is extremely tight still. Things are loosening up but it seems there people promising impossible deals. Only strong deals with skin are getting done. Yes, there are real lenders doing real deals but buyer beware.<br />

<p>thank you Diane, </p>
<p>and then we get clients who don't understand that we have to pass up on their deal, because they are asking for 100% FINANCING!! COME ON ALREADY WE JUST CAME OUT OF A RECESSION, or you don't want to pay APPRAISAL , ENVIRONMENTAL FEES AND SO ON, Because you have to check companies websites to see if we are REAL, We as lenders have to check CERTAIN DOCUMENTS to see if YOUR real. Therefore the pendulum does swing both ways! </p>

What sets your opportunity apart from the others? What is it about your deals that would be attractive to an investor/funder?</p>

<p>There are unfortunately many individuals who have hurt us legit and honest business owners. Best is to put yourself out on social networks, a complete website, portray testimonials, etc.,etc to show you are legit. And having years of experience with a definite local of office helps. </p>
